Douglas S. Fraser & Sons Ltd was a British automobile manufacturer based in Arbroath, Angus, that operated around 1911. The company specialized in the production of steam-powered vehicles, a technology that was prevalent in the early automotive industry.
Fraser & Sons developed three distinct steam cars, each featuring innovative engineering elements such as poppet-valve engines, coil tube boilers, and vaporizing paraffin burners. Among these vehicles, two were equipped with 3-cylinder engines, while the third had a more powerful 4-cylinder engine. Although there were intentions to produce cars for general sale, all three vehicles ultimately remained within the Fraser family, limiting their impact on the broader automotive market.
